Monday, April 20, 2015 - (Blind tasting)
Full, spicy, immediate nose. Walnuts, chocolate and slightly animaly. Also hints of indish spices. Mature and a bit funky and rough. Gently oaky.
Medium-fullish, intense palate. Pinot in the masculine school. Good, dynamic tannins. Sweet liquorice, dark fruit and chocolate (!). A bit four-square and robust (Corton?)
I have not been impressed by Tollot-Beaut during the last few years, but this was a good bottle. Tasty, but also a bit disjointed. The vintage is a Winner.
